I never thought i would say this, but i wouldn't mind them having the IP, IF they let the work on OS4 continue (which i doubt very much as it is in direct competition with MorphOs).
I'm not sure - someone will correct me if I'm wrong - but MorphOs comes 'free' with their hardware.
(Thinking back on the MorphOs GPL? Thread)
Now many are waiting to get the A1 in order to use OS4 - which won't run on the Genesis hw (another point of contention for some).
It seems to me the smart thing in such a scenario would be to allow OS4 to continue being developed by Hyperion to support the users who wish to use it.
Seeing how they would be the only vendor supplying the needed hardware - they don't really lose any sales, they gain them.
But eh.. there will be folks who simply wont buy it on principle -- personally I'm going to wait a loooooong time before commiting myself to anything.
Siggy.
